As humans, we are wired to connect. O.U.R. Journey provides a positive source of this connection with leaders with lived experiences our participants can relate to. Our prevention and intervention efforts are strategic and produce long-term effects of positivity, away from the impact of gang activity, by creating healthy, culturally sensitive coping mechanisms.

Depression and substance abuse are coping skills we often see with trauma and life adversity. It brings stress, disconnection, and violence into the lives of those we support.

We empower families by reconnection to healing and hope. We encourage our youth to build positive relationships through strong family support and community connections.
